Installation and operating guide

1

Place the blender on a clean, dry, level surface, and set the ON/OFF switch to OFF.

2

Plug the blender into an electric outlet.

3

Filling the container.

1. Use sufficient amount of liquid to ensure that the mixture is fluid and free-running at all times. Pour the liquid into the container FIRST.

2. Cut solid ingredients into pieces that are no bigger than a (2.5 cm) cube.

3. Add the ingredients to container in batches. Do not blend maximum volume all at once.

4. Do NOT overfill the container with product. This may prevent the blender from processing the product properly. Process dense foods or thick mixtures in small batches, and remember that the volume of the product normally increases during processing.

4

Always place the cover and filler cap on the container when blending. For blending hot liquids, remove filler cap from container cover before blending.

5

Place the cover and filler cap on the container.

6

Set the Hi/Low switch to the desired speed.

Move the power switch to the “on” or I position.

7

NOTE: If you want the blender to run for short bursts, press the Pulse switch (on some models).

While you are pressing the Pulse switch, the blender will run at the selected speed. Release the Pulse switch to stop the blender.

Cleaning guide

8

Do not allow food residue to dry on any part of the blender. Wash and rinse container whenever it will not be used again within one hour, as follows:

1. Remove the container from the base, and then remove the cover. Add cleaning solution to the container.

2. Scrub and flush out the container interior, cover and filler cap to remove food residue. Empty container.

3. Fill container 1⁄4 full with fresh washing solution and place it on the base.

4. Replace the cover on the container and run the blender on high speed (except model 1G901) for 2 minutes.

5. Repeat step 3 using clean rinse water (95° F/35° C). Look warm water.

6. Wipe down the container, filler cap, and cover with a soft cloth or sponge, dampened with fresh washing solution.

7. Wipe the exterior of the base with a damp cloth or sponge. The base contains electrical components: do not immerse, use a high-pressure washer, or use a dishwasher to clean the base.

Troubleshooting

9

1.Blender fails to start or stops while it is running and cannot be restarted

• Check to see if unit is securely plugged into an electric outlet.

•  Check to see if the fuse for the electric outlet has blown or if a circuit breaker has tripped.

2. Ingredients will not mix Properly

• Check to see if enough liquid has been added to the ingredients. Mixture should be fluid and free-running at all times.
• Solid pieces are too large. Pieces should not exceed (2.5 cm) cubes.
• Container is too full. Do not fill past highest graduation marking.
• Cutter unit blades are not sharp or are damaged. Inspect container and cutter assembly daily. Replace container and cutter assembly at least every 12 months or sooner if cutter assembly appears worn or damaged.
• Check to see if cutter unit assembly is installed properly.
• Select speed (on some models) to create a fluid blend.
